Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Before the dawn
She waits there for us
To sing her song.
The rhythms will invite you,
To try to find
Freedom, she'll entice you
If you wanna survive
Follow me if you wanna survive.
If you wanna survive, come with me
If you wanna survive
If you wanna survive,
follow me if you wanna survive.
Cause we're gonna need a witness tonight,
Cause we know there's no ending this fight alone.
Yeah, we're gonna need a witness tonight,
Cause we know there's no ending this fight alone.

The lyrics of RANK 1/CERF/MITISKA/JAREN/HEREDIA TOMAS's song "Witness" convey the message of survival in the face of adversity. The first two lines of the song, "Deep inside the forest/Before the dawn," create a sense of anticipation and wonder, as if the story is just about to unfold. The singer is waiting for someone to join her to sing a song, which symbolizes hope and a desire for unity. The rhythms of the song will lead the listener to search for freedom, but it is a journey that requires a willingness to lose oneself to the experience.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the need for a witness, someone to stand alongside and offer support during the hard times. The repetition of the phrase "we're gonna need a witness tonight" reinforces the idea that the journey towards survival is not one that can be traveled alone. It is a plea for community and an acknowledgement that even in the darkest moments, there is always someone who can offer help.

"once upon a time, there lived a very special being who had the ability to right wrongs, transform lives, and change worlds. and when one was ready to finally experience her presence, she magically appeared. then, like a beacon, she would illuminate the path to contentment and life would be forever changed. they called her hope"
